The dreaded 2nd gear grind! Doh! Synchros? Or something else?

Recommended Posts

My '92 Corrado is grinding bad in normal upshifts going into 2nd gear. Does it on every shift now unless I let the RPM's go down before shifting into 2nd. I have read a ton on this and looks like this is a common issue. Anyone else have this same problem and find that it was NOT the synchros (I know, wishful thinking on my part, but had to ask)?.

What's the mileage? Have you checked the oil level? Does the bite point feel low or change?

 

It could be syncros but it could also be clutch, clutch hydraulics, old gearbox oil, bad shifter alignment, worn engine mounts etc...
